And yet Stevie's is thriving, even if on a very small scale. Business has improved each of the last 5 years or so, and he's expanded twice in that period, most recently last year. Again, all on a very small scale, but Steve is thinking of taking the family to Europe this summer.
Why? Friendly service; a friendly neighborhood approach; willingness to work on anything (4-wheel, 2-person/2 drivetrain quad car? Mopeds? Electric bikes? Slime the 2 kids' 16" tires? Find a bearing for your baby jogger?); a focus on "just ride" bikes -- a commuter with 7 gears and battery lights, fenders, rack, stand for $400? A huge lineup of all types of consignment bikes; a willingness to order what you want and install it; very good mechanical services and a knowledge of weird systems. And people come in and just donate things like the 2 '70s *toute Campy* pro level road bikes. https://vimeo.com/104867698 On Wed, Feb 15, 2017 at 10:15 PM, iamkeith <keithhar...@gmail.com> wrote: > ... > > https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/warren- > buffett-just-dropped-walmart-and-signaled-the-death-of- > retail-as-we-know-it/ar-AAmWKmg > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
